November Fitness Challenge
As i'm approaching day 7, I'm really starting to feel the increase in activity. My hunger level has increased. I offset that to an extent with increased water consumption. Today, the sudden restart of lifting has me feeling stiff. That actually makes me want to go lift again and work through it. Im trying to be smart with adding in the lifting, to focus on reps verse weight, as I shock my body with the upper body increase in activity.
This thread has been a great motivation to keep me going. Thanks everyone!

I've been doing 100 pushups a day, and am trying to challenge myself to raise it up. So I'm adding 10% each week to my daily total. So starting tomorrow I'll be doing 110. Maybe a little side challenge you want to jump in on?
I am glad this popped up for the reminder and encourgement. I need to get in an activity today. My 1pm meeting was canceled, so I guess this is my window.
I noticed a big dip in my workout heart rate last night, so that's how I know the work is paying off, and my body is starting to get into better shape. Took longer to get to my peak heart rate, and dipped quicker when I finished working out.
I started working out a little before November started though, so it hasn't only been a week for me...this is just a really good reminder to stick to it. Lets keep it going!

I'm willing to take the un-used carbs of others, out of respect to Carbus, God of dad bod.

Haha, same here. I don't believe in a restrictive diet. I am all about everything in moderation and making good decisions. I have no problem with some carbs in my diet. It doesn't mean I am sitting down to a bowl of pasta with a side of garlic bread every night, but I am not afraid of carbs either.
Side note, I am 2 standing hours away from closing all my rings, woot woot!

30 mins of push-ups and sit-ups since I don't like to run in the rain
"Off day" today with the tough cardio workout and a night of climbing tomorrow, so did a 20m bodyweight circuit before dinner. Lots of good core work, push-ups, bodyweight squats.
All three rings closed before 7PM. Feels good.

Travel day but booth set up and being on the third floor of the hotel helped close the rings. 
I started back up with pushups last week. Such a good full body exercise, but it was a rude awakening for the first couple sets I did. I remember being able to do more...
Do we need to send someone to your house?
My wife has learned about this. Now she wants to lead me through an abs torture workout she developed. Yikes.
